In Frankenstein how can you support that no one is completely good or completely evil
vodka [1.7K]
Victor Frankenstein was a promising young doctor and brilliant scientist. He had the potential to do much good for humanity (he wanted to cheat death), but he had a fatal flaw -- the pride, or hubris, which saw him creating a humanoid monster for his own glorification. Ambition and shortsightedness got in the way of commonsense.
The monster was also flawed--he murdered people,such as William and Elizabeth. However, at the end he reveals a human side. He is a tragic, pathetic figure, utterly lonely, miserable, and rejected by human society. He had wanted the normal human comforts of a wife and family but these were denied him by his creator who refused to make a wife for him.

Which two pieces of textual evidence from Selection 2 illustrate Laurence's persistence
Murrr4er [49]

Hi. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, when searching for your question on the internet, I was able to find another question exactly like yours that showed the text "Laurence in the hold." If that's the case for you, I hope the answer below will help you.

Answer:

C."He felt what seemed to be stacks of small, light and very hard squares of wood. Laurence put the square into his mouth and tried to bite into it."  

D."After a full hour he found one whose lid was open a crack --- hardly wide enough for the his fingers. Bit by bit, the bread softened, until at last he was able to break off a piece."

Explanation:

"Laurence in the Hold" features a boy named Lawrence, who was, for some reason, hiding on a ship that was already on the high seas, meaning Lawrence couldn't get off the ship until that ship stopped somewhere. Lawrence was in hiding, no one could know he was there, but he was very hungry and needed to eat to survive. He knew that he would not receive food as a passenger or a crew member and for that reason, he persisted in looking around the ship for something he could eat. The two excerpts presented above show this persistence of Lawrence in satisfying his hunger.
